Where does the mitral valve allow blood to enter during contraction of left ventricle?

The mitral valve allows blood to enter the left ventricle from the left atrium during contraction of the left ventricle. This valve opens to allow blood flow from the atrium to the ventricle and then closes to prevent backflow of blood.


From the atrium through the tricuspid valve to the?

The blood flows from the atrium through the tricuspid valve to the right ventricle. The tricuspid valve prevents backflow of blood from the right ventricle back into the right atrium when the ventricle contracts.


What is the name of the valve that opens to allow blood to travel from the right atrium to the right ventrcle?

The tricuspid valve is the valve that opens to allow blood to flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle in the heart. This valve prevents blood from flowing back into the right atrium when the right ventricle contracts.


Is the tricuspid valve located on the right side of the heart between the the right atrium and the right ventricle?

Yes, the tricuspid valve is located on the right side of the heart between the right atrium and the right ventricle. It controls the flow of blood from the atrium to the ventricle, preventing backflow.


The structure and function of right atrium?

The right atrium is one of the four chambers of the heart that receives deoxygenated blood from the body through the superior and inferior vena cava. It then contracts to pump this blood into the right ventricle, which will then pump it to the lungs for oxygenation. The right atrium is lined with specialized cells that help regulate the heart's electrical activity and coordinate its contractions.

What is the structure of the atrium?

the left atrium is above the left ventricle. the blood which has been oxygenated from the lungs due to the gas exchange between the alveoli and capillaries comes here from the pulmonary artery this blood then gets sent to the left ventricle through the bicuspid valve this stops the backflow of blood but it allows the blood to go to the left ventricle but does not allow the blood to go back

Incompetent mitral valve allows the retrograde flow of blood from the left ventricle into this structure?

Incompetent mitral valve allows the retrograde flow of blood from the left ventricle into the left atrium.


What is the placental mammal's structure of the heart?

All mammals (monotremes, marsupials, and placental mammals) have the same heart structure: a four chambered heart. The four chambers are the left atrium, the left ventricle, the right atrium, and the right ventricle. The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from the veins. It pumps it into the right ventricle. The right ventricle pumps it into the pulmonary arteries, which go to the lungs. The lungs have received oxygen and give it to the blood coming through. The now oxygenated blood flows back to the heart by pulmonary veins, and is received by the left atrium. The left atrium pumps the oxygenated blood into the left ventricle. The left ventricle pumps the blood to all of the body through arteries.


Is this a correct statement about the heart valves the tricuspid valve divides the left atrium from the left ventricle?

No, the tricuspid valve permits one-way blood flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle. There is no valve or natural opening that allows blood flow from the right atrium to the left atrium.

What is name of the valve that opens to allow the blood to travel from the right atrium to the right ventricle?

Tricuspid valve


How does the blood travel through the heart?

You get deoxygenated or impure blood from the whole body. It enters the right atrium. Right atrium pumps the blood in right ventricle. From right ventricle blood goes to your lungs. Here the blood gets oxygenated or get purified. Then it enters your left atrium. Left atrium pumps the blood in left ventricle. Left ventricle pumps the blood to your whole body.


What is the name of the valve that opens to allow blood to travel from the right atrium to the right ventrcle?

The tricuspid valve is the valve that opens to allow blood to flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle in the heart. This valve prevents blood from flowing back into the right atrium when the right ventricle contracts.


Does blood flow from the ventricle to the atria?

No, it flows from the Right Atrium to the Right Ventricle then to the Left Atrium to the Left Ventricle. Hope this helps!
